Why people make this tea

Kunlun snow chrysanthemum is a tea Nourilo finds worth keeping in the cupboard: traditionally favoured for blood pressure and blood fats, the cup steeps to a lovely amber-red with a mellow, fragrant sweetness. This little daisy grows high on the cliffs of the Kunlun range above 3,000 metres and blooms only briefly each August, which is why it is so prized.

What studies say about the key ingredients

Traditional use is not the same as clinical proof. Here is the strongest human research we found for each ingredient, limitations included.

  • Chrysanthemum · Randomized controlled trial, 37 participants · 2023
    Compared with the high-fat meal alone, the extract group had lower postprandial glucose at 1 hour and higher antioxidant markers (T-AOC, SOD, GSH), with lower MDA. Incremental area under the curve did not differ significantly between groups.Limitation: Small sample of healthy young adults given a single high-fat meal, so longer-term effects and effects in people with metabolic conditions are unknown.PubMed 36677639 · 1 more chrysanthemum study
